Title: SPL – Dunfermline v Heart of MidlothianThe latest full-match coverage from the SPL as Dunfermline host Hearts at East End Park.

The clash will see new Dunfermline manager Jim Jefferies face his old side for the first time since taking over as Pars boss but previous league meetings this season suggest that Hearts will enter the match as favourites.

Dunfermline’s first meeting with Hearts this season was in October when the Jambos travelled to East End Park and recorded a 2-0 victory.

Their most recent match was in December, when Hearts recorded a 4-0 victory at Tynecastle Stadium thanks to goals from Stephen Elliott, Mehdi Taouil, David Templeton and Rudi Skacel.

Title: Air An Rathad – Wacky Races Special

Join presenter Derek Murray as he catches up with the Air an Rathad team this Easter in the Wacky Races Special. All your favourite Wacky Races challenges in one programme, with eight gruelling races to test our plucky presenters to the limit.

Fiona, Murray and Calum Iain may be friends, but they are ruthlessly competitive. Watch them battle it out on the track, in their own version of basketball, with the help of Rollover Roy! There's jelly and eggs to play with, and a strange new game called car curling. Murray thinks he has got the better of Calum Iain in the karting but in the end the rules beat him, despite a tremendous effort by his young team mate Jamie. There's more dressing up, and the lovely Lola returns for a spot of je ne sais quoi.

Who will win the Air an Rathad Cup this time? And what really goes on, behind the scenes? Join Derek on Easter Monday to find out.
